A/N: Hi everyone! I indicated it at the bottom of the previous chapter, but we have now reached Black Dragon arc territory, i.e., manga territory! Just wanted to forewarn those who have only watched the anime :) Enjoy!


Misaki's P.O.V.

Misaki furrowed her brow and stared down at her phone, double-checking where Takemichi had asked her to meet up, before looking back up to squint at the glowing pink neon sign in front of her.

...A bowling alley? 

She raised her brow but shrugged her shoulders and walked inside, pausing to look around to see if she could find him without having to wander around awkwardly. 

There's nothing worse than going to a new place to find someone. My social anxiety could never. 

"HELL YEAH, ANOTHER STRIKE!" 

Turning her head in the direction of the loud and familiar voice she sighed, thankful. 

Thank Kami I didn't have to wander around this place aimlessly.

However, she did somehow feel like she was getting second-hand embarrassment from his continuously loud shouts and cheers.

I'm literally cringing. This is why I stay home.

She walked over towards the lane he was at to see that Hina was also with him, too. She noticed he seemed to be conversing with a rather tall and strong looking boy, who had a strikingly blue crew-cut with a swirl design shaved onto the left side of his head, as well as a rather prominent scar on the left side of his lip. She tilted her head, trying to remember if she recognized him, since he definitely looked like a delinquent, but came up empty-handed.

I wonder who that is...

"Hey, 'Micci." She voiced, sending him a small wave to get his attention. He turned, his eyes wide for a moment, before a large smile appeared on his face.

"Misaki! You made it!" 

She nodded, and made sure to send a smile and a greeting Hina's way too, to which she reciprocated before continuing to bowl. 

Although, given her score...if that was me I'd give up. Good for her!

"Yeah, wasn't expecting it to be a bowling alley, though." She noted, her eyes moving to stare at the bowling glove he wore on his right hand as well as his custom bowling shoes before looking back at him. She stifled a laugh behind her hand in an attempt to not squeal out a weasel like laugh.

"You must really like it, huh?" 

Takemichi's face reddened slightly.

"H-hey! There's nothing wrong with liking bowling!" He stuttered out, slightly embarrassed. She chuckled at his response and slightly punched his shoulder.

"I'm just teasing you, 'Micci. You make it too easy in this get-up." 

"That's not nice, Misaki!" He pouted, his cheeks growing even redder. 

"A-anyway! The reason I asked you here is because I..." He looked around to see if anyone was listening, before lowering his face and covering his mouth slightly.

"I went to...you know...and I found out a lot of stuff that we need to go over." 

She immediately understood what he meant and she nodded her head. As she opened her mouth to speak, she found that she was cut-off by a deep voice.

"Did I heard someone talking shit about the lanes?" 

Misaki shot Takemichi a questioning look before turning her head to the right to see the blue-haired boy from earlier looming over them, causing her to arch her neck back.
